About Me

imageWorking as a crisis counselor in the hospital setting for 10 years I have been witness to the nature of the human spirit.  I have seen people at their worst emotionally.  I have also seen some recover almost fully while others do not.  Why is it that science tells us that we have neurotransmitters that each have specific functions yet medication has such varying effects from person to person?  My views started to morph.  I began to research Eastern medicine and discovered acupuncture.  I researched schools and found the only one in NJ was 10 minutes from my home.  I looked into the program and found that it fit my work schedule.  The "sign" that finalized my decision was a patient sharing her experience with acupuncture.  My path had been laid out.  Three years later, I graduated from Eastern School of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.  I consider myself truly lucky to have found something I love to do- helping others- in a manner that Western medicine lacks.  My goals for your healing is to give the most balanced treatment I can and my experience in both Western and Eastern medicine allows me to do so for body, mind and spirit. To learn more about me, please go to the "Contact Me" page and send me a message.
